The minor key refrainEchoes the tears in her heartAs she sings in the segregated bar.The piano keysCombine in rainbowed harmonyWith saxophone and double bassAs the Gardenia fluoresces in the dark.Lady Day’s single octaveEmoted with the spectrum of life’s painsBlossoms into a garden of everlasting glory.© Sheila Ash, 2018ashramblings
